This plugin provides a transform from Docbook to DITA and some
proof-of-concept examples of interoperability.
- You must install the DITA Open Toolkit 1.3 or higher and run a test
build to verify the installation.
- It's also recommended that you install the DocBook tools at
version 1.69.1 and the DocBook 4.4 DTDs.
Other versions may work but haven't been tested.
- Edit the dbdita.properties file in the plugin directory to
identify the location of the DocBook tools and document types.
- In the base directory for the DITA Open Toolkit, install
the plugin.
You execute the following command (using blackslashes instead of
slashes on Windows):
ant -f demo\dbdita\install-plugin.xml
- Verify the plugin installed correctly with a sample build.
You can execute the following command (again, using blackslashes
instead of slashes on Windows):
ant -f demo\dbdita\run-ant.xml docbook2DITADemo
You can use the DocBook-to-DITA transform on your own
DocBook content or explore the interoperability demos.
